The National Human Rights Commission issued a notice to Madhya Pradesh authorities on Tuesday after receiving allegations that Hindu children were being enrolled in madrasas and taught Islamic texts in the Morena-Shivpuri area. Commission member Priyank Kanoongo said the complaint suggested more than five children had been placed in these religious schools, raising concerns about potential religious conversion. The NHRC directed the state's School Education Department to conduct a full investigation and submit an action report within 15 days.

Kanoongo emphasized that madrasas lack formal recognition as educational institutions under Indian law and fall outside the framework of the Right to Education Act. A complaint filed on Sept. 26 alleged that 556 Hindu children had been enrolled in 27 unauthorized madrasas across several districts as part of an organized conversion operation. The commission questioned how Hindu children were admitted to institutions not classified as schools under constitutional education provisions, and it described government funding for such madrasas as an administrative failure.
